Odyssey of the Blind God



Nial received a rather simple explanation of the three trials he had to pass. 

The Nightmare trial would throw him into a Nightmare, forcing him to re-experience the worst time of his life. He would have to witness the worst time of his life once again even though he had already sealed the memories in the deepest parts of his subconsciousness. 

Nial was pretty sure that he wouldn't witness his mother's death again. He already had nightmares of that in the past and he overcame them. 

On the contrary, Nial was certain that his Nightmare would be related to his two lifetimes. Even if that was not the case, it would be somehow related to his being as Nial Lacardia. Nial could bet his life on that.

Other than the Nightmare Trial, the Trial of Truth and the Trial of Power seemed rather simple.

The Trial of Truth was a simple quiz. He would have to answer a bunch of questions to detect whether he had a good personality, decent goals, and what he desired. The quiz would be supervised to make sure that he wouldn't lie, and he would have to write down on special paper, which forced him not to hide anything. 

That way, he could neither lie nor leave out the most important parts when answering the quiz. 

Meanwhile, the Trial of Power would determine how powerful he was. His individual strength would be tested to the limit to find out his current standards, his talent, and how far he can go with his means. 

He may not be an Ancient God yet but his combat prowess was certainly above that. Going all out with enough energy stored in the Heart of Gluttony, Nial may actually be able to face a Divine God head-on. Of course, that was just theory and not something they had tested out yet. They would find out the truth soon enough.

Nobody could tell how long it would take before the Trials were to be completed. Nial didn't have to pass them immediately either. He could re-enter the trials as often as he desired. 

Of course, if Nial's potential and personality were too bad, even re-entering the trials thousands of times wouldn't make a difference. It would be a waste of time.

However, nobody thought that Nial would fail. Even the strongest Asura, who got to know Nial only a few hours prior, could tell that the Eternal Darkness was not the type of person who failed such trials.

He was sure that the Eternal Darkness would pass the three trials with flying colors.

"Are you ready?" The strongest Asura asked Nial, who could only sigh deeply.

"Just go for it."

Nial took a deep breath, closed his eyelids, and waited patiently to be pulled into the Nightmare Trial.

The strongest Asura smiled lightly at his reaction. He lifted his hand and pressed a small, flat object against his forehead.

"Good luck."

[In the far distance of the Gigalorian Galaxies, at the same time]

Inside the Divine Hall.

All Divine Gods had gathered.

For the first time in history, all Divine Gods gathered in the Divine Hall of the Beginning.

It was a first, but it was certainly not a pleasant occasion.

"The Dark Successor started moving again. How did he survive the ploy of the Divine God of Truth? Looks like his sacrifice was not worth it…that's unfortunate," The Divine Eye Goddess said, scratching her eyelid in annoyance.

Her golden eye twitched a lot in recent days, and she had no idea why that was the case. The golden eye never acted up before.

Even her other eye felt much heavier than usual. It was almost as if a heavy weight pulled down the eyelid of her silver eye. It was pretty annoying, and even more so frustrating.

"I never expected the Divine God of Truth to be willing to poison himself to entrap the successor of the Darkness God. I always thought that the Divine God of Truth was obsessed with life…to think that he would sacrifice himself with his poison." The Divine God of Forging said, leaning over the shaft of his humongous forging hammer.

"The Divine God of Truth should have informed us about his plot. We could have helped him. Now, his sacrifice was for naught. What a waste…" The Divine Goddess of Poison added. She clicked her tongue and cursed the stupidity of the Divine God of Truth.

Who would poison himself and order someone else to kill him after realizing that the Successor of the Darkness God decided to come over to his place? 

Did he already expect to die through the claws of the Infernal Devils, and he just took it on his own to make sure that the Dark Successor would suffer?

"Either way. The traces are pretty clear. The Divine God of Truth poisoned himself willingly. No external forces have been used to force the Divine God of Truth to do anything. It is only a little bit weird thought. Just like the Divine God of Forging said, the Divine God of Truth was obsessed with life. 

Rather than sacrificing himself, he would have asked others to support him and take down the Dark Successor the moment he found out that he came over. There is also something else we have to pay attention to…" The Divine God of Energy pointed out.

"...What else do we have to pay attention to?" The Goddess of the Divine Eyes asked, still rubbing her eyelid. She lifted her hand to pinch her cheeks a moment w

"Isn't it weird that the Dark Successor came to visit the Divine God of Truth? What reason did he have to visit the Divine God of Truth? To kill him? Please, that's stupid. The Dark Successor ascended godhood not too long ago. He may have some Infernal Devils by his side but they never attacked anyone. I didn't sense their vile energy remnants anywhere in the abode of the Divine God of Truth. That means, the Dark Successor and his Devils never attacked anyone," The Divine God of Energy pointed out.

He cleared his throat, giving the other Divine Gods some time to think about his words before he added.

"Even if the Divine God of Truth was ready to sacrifice his life to stop the Dark Successor, that didn't mean the Dark Successor wanted to kill the Divine God."

"What was the reason for him to approach the Divine God of Truth?!"

Even if someone wanted to answer the question posed by the Divine God of Energy, nobody could actually find a feasible reason for Nial's actions.

After thoroughly researching the crime scene it was found out that the Dark Successor didn't attack anyone. The energy he had released was without killing intent at that time.

Furthermore, he had only become a God. He had been in presence of a woman with whom many were very familiar.

Most hated her but that was not of importance. 

The Oracle had been next to him. What did that mean?

Nobody could tell.

It was too confusing…and it didn't make any sense.

"...Is he really our enemy?"
